These personal anecdotes from random nurses and other health-care officials always turn out to be bullshit. Most of the time (and almost certainly this one) it's a narcissist trying to get their name in lights. A few times it's been people who just don't understand what's normal (e.g. new nurses who don't realize hospital chaos isn't COVID, it's always that way, or one nurse literally from Peoria who traveled to Harlem during the pandemic... uh, yeah, big city hospitals are a bit different)

Peoria, Illinois, the canonical opposite of big city/coastal culture.
